TalkSearch API
Bitcointalk data built for software, agents, and research tools.
Access the indexed Bitcointalk corpus through a general-purpose JSON API. Top up with crypto, create revocable API keys, and use prepaid credits on a pay-as-you-go basis.

-H 'Authorization: Bearer ts_live_your_key'Prepaid pay-as-you-go pricing
1,000 API credits / $1
Top up in advance and spend credits as you use the API. Usage and remaining balance are shown in your dashboard.
Crypto top-ups
Prepay from $5 through our self-hosted checkout. Pay with Bitcoin, Monero, or a supported crypto swap. Your balance is credited after settlement.
Keys under your control
Create separate keys per application, choose when they expire, restrict them to IPv4 or IPv6 addresses and CIDR ranges, and revoke them instantly from the dashboard.
Search and corpus endpoints
Search posts or cached images, or retrieve an individual post, topic, or profile by its Bitcointalk ID. Every successful response uses the same Bearer authentication, metering headers, and predictable JSON contract.
